Personalities Matter - Finding the Right Dentist
By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Ryan_Coisson] Ryan Coisson
When you're choosing a dentist for your family, you want every member's experience with the profession to be a positive one: after all, going to the dentist regularly is essential to great health; and if there is a personality clash it could lead to not going to the dentist at all. Here are some tips on evaluating the different dentists out there based on personality compatibility.
--Base your decision on factors other than geographical proximity: Too many of us simply pick a dentist at random because his office is located closest to our home or work; but proximity should only be a very small a part of the equation.
--Visit websites: You can often get a good feel about a dentist's personality based on the office website. Is it playful or super-serious? Does the site talk at length about the relaxed, laid back atmosphere or is it specific about the dentist's ability to get along with kids? Whatever your family or individual circumstances, a web site is a great place to start: most dentists offer the same basic services but their approaches to dentistry can be vastly different. One thing to consider: if you are a gay individual, you may feel more comfortable going to a gay-friendly office or one where one or more of the dental partners are gay. Very often, the site will advertise being gay-friendly right on the site.
--Don't be afraid to conduct interviews: You should pay a visit in person and ask to speak to the dentist himself. Pay careful attention to how well your personalities mesh and whether you like him and his staff enough to trust your family's care to them.
Bottom line: If you don't feel comfortable at your dentist's office, you're not going to want to go and you know your kids will fight you every step of the way! So choose carefully; and remember: if you don't like your current dentist, it's okay to make a change!
